Bitcoin faces a historically bearish August. Will it defy the odds or succumb to the 'bear month' trend? Key support at $110K in focus.
Bitcoin's been on a rollercoaster, hasn't it? August is historically a tough month for BTC, and with key support levels in play, all eyes are on whether it can buck the trend. Let's dive into what's happening.
August: Bitcoin's Historical Kryptonite
Since 2013, August has often been a downer for Bitcoin. Glassnode data shows an average loss of 11.4% during this month. Last year saw an 8.6% dip. Ouch! If history repeats itself, we might see BTC slide towards the $105,000 mark.
The $110,000 Support Level: Make or Break?
According to IG Markets analyst Tony Sycamore, Bitcoin needs to hold above the $110,000 support level to have a shot at retesting its all-time high. Over a particular weekend, Bitcoin took a 5% tumble, dropping from $118,330 to $112,300. That former record high of $112,000 acted as a logical pullback target and held as support.
However, if risk appetite wanes and Bitcoin breaks below this support, we could see a deeper correction towards the 200-day moving average around $99,355. Arthur Hayes echoes this sentiment, warning that macroeconomic pressures could drag Bitcoin back to the $100,000 level.
